I've rebuild a lot of motors before, last one was a 4.6 high performance cobra engine! But I've never worked on rotary engines. How do you check compression and what are the specs ? I'm in dayton OH.

How do I check compression ? is it like a normal motor ? the car is not shinka, for some reason the car fax showed shinka. where do they sell the rebuild kit ?
